It is NOT a KILLING!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
|
I have HAD IT with these stupid people. "It's a killing - it's murder!" NO, IT IS NOT!!!! If you loaded her up with morphine or strangled her or shot her in the head, THAT would be ACTIVE and a killing. Withdrawal of medical treatment (and yes, nutrition/hydration are medical treatments) is a PASSIVE ACT and thus not homicide. Where the hell did some of these "lawyers" like Santorum get their law degrees, in a box of Cracker Jacks???
Sorry - just had to vent.

6. It boils down to a fulcrum issue in American politics |
|
Human bodies or Human beings. What constitutes the thing we legally protect. What is covered by our laws. The body or the being. Its the ultimate showdown of where does the soul/mind/spirit/identity reside.

8. It's not a killing because Terri's brain was already dead |
|
Edited on Thu Mar-31-05 04:00 PM by rocknation
The part of Terri's brain that gave her a consciousness and a soul died over a decade ago. She was no longer alive because "she" didn't exist, only her brain stem functions. Once the feeding tube was removed, her body's battery literally ran down.
